Fans - Get This One Right Away!
The new "Dragon Tales" DVD focuses on stories about overcoming fear. Included is "Have No Fear" - a story about Ord's fear of a butterfly/frog hybrid creatured called a "butterfrog" and "Try It You'll Like It," - a story in which our Dragon Tales friends try to help Zak overcome his fear of the attractions at the Dragon Land Amusement Park. Both are fairly well-written stories that have a good approach to the topic.

However, the main and most important reason why show fans should get those DVD right away is the presence of the story "Cowboy Max" on this DVD. This story is part an episode that was supposed to air during the final batch of five shown on PBS, but instead ended up airing only foreign markets for unknown reasons. The two stories in that episode: "Just the Two of Us" and the one on this DVD - "Cowboy Max," featured some of the best writing and dialogue ever seen on the series.

Stories are presented full-screen and a play-all feature is included.

Another great collection of Dragon Tales' episodes
"Dragon Tales - Whenever I'm Afraid" features five stories centering around 6-year-old Emmy, her 4-year-old brother Max and their adventures in Dragonland with Ord, Cassie, Zak and Wheezie and Quetzal. The stories are imaginative and fun, and perfect for little ones who love indulging in creative and make-believe play. The stories in this collection focus on overcoming fear.

The five episodes here are "Have No Fear, "Make No Mistake," Cowboy Max," "I Believe In Me," and "Try It, You'll Like It." There are short songs that link each episode. The other features are continuous play, English and Spanish audio, English, French and Spanish subtitles, and full screen presentations and digitally mastered audio and anamorphic video. Final verdict; fun show for toddlers-preschoolers.

Inspiring
Dragon Tales stand out as a much needed source of inspiration for our youngsters at the vital formative time of their personalities. All children should have the opportunity of viewing these stories promoting worthy values in developing into positive role models for their peers.
